Buying a new house can be stressful. In fact, psychologists say the process of buying and selling a home is among the most trying events most people are likely to experience in their lifetimes, ranking just behind divorce and the death of a close family member. But imagine you’re buying a home on the East coast and selling another on the West coast. Now that’s stress! Which is why it’s vital to have people on your side you can trust and rely on, not only to get the deal done quickly, but to make sure it’s done right and that you get your money’s worth. That’s why I turned to Robert Ortega to sell my home. When the job offer came late on September Friday to relocate to Miami, the Miami Herald wanted me in the office in three weeks. It seemed impossible, given all the complexities such a move demanded. But Robert hosted a group of brokers at our house the following morning and by Monday, we had signed to sell the home for the exact price we were asking. I wish buying a car was as easy! The haggling came later, of course, and Robert was on the phone with me the moment something new developed. He presented my options clearly and concisely and helped me make the choices that kept the sale on track. He even offered advise on my home purchase in Miami, putting me in touch with local agents who knew the market here and explaining the nuances in the law. I can’t imagine how anyone could have handled it better. If you’re truly interested in buying or selling a home quickly, easily and at a fair price, I strongly recommend you put Robert Ortega on your side.
by Kevin Baxter Writer For The Miami Herald Now With The Los Angeles TimesThis letter is in appreciation for the tremendous work that Robert did when it came time to sell and purchase a new home. Robert Ortega’s office went out of their way to make sure I understood exactly how I could obtain the best price when it came time to sell my home. I have worked with other agents in the past and none were as patient as Robert Ortega in answering all of my questions. His many of years of real estate experience definitely helped to sell my home for more than what I expected. After I purchased my new home Robert Ortega and his staff ensured that everything was working as expected. Even after a few months had gone by his staff reached out to me and provided with references for a backyard project that I was looking to start. This was unexpected and shows how much they care about their clients, even after the sale was complete. I would highly recommend that anyone looking to purchase or sell their home place their trust in Robert Ortega and his staff.

by Candy HarrisOwning a home is a realization that has taken us time and energy. Nevertheless, without Robert Ortega’s help and smooth transitioning, it would have most likely prolonged the process for us even further. To elaborate, we had been home shopping on our own for a few years partly because we hadn’t found the “right agent”. In previous experiences, our expectations were not met and so we continued to search. Fortunately we met Mr. Ortega manner of guiding us through the home buying process made us feel at ease and confident that he would assist us in finding our dream home. Having Mr. Ortega represent us was a very positive experience and I strongly recommend him to anyone in search of a place they can call home. Mr. Robert Ortega really came through for us, always keeping us informed throughout the whole process. Mr. Ortega is an asset to the real estate business who displayed professionalism at all of our meetings. Not only did he have a great rapport with us in trying to find a suitable home for our needs, but he actually became more intuitive in terms of determining what exactly we were looking for as we saw more homes. Finally, he was always patient and never persuasive for me in bidding on any home just for the sake of moving on! I am very satisfied with his knowledge of the business and service provided and because of this we are now living in the comfort of what we truly consider home. If you are in search of a dedicated agent to represent you and your family, let Mr. Ortega lead the way!
